This was our first trip to the zoo here in Anchorage. They specialize in Arctic animals. Daniel is the little boy in the red coat and as you can see he wasn't afraid of trying to touch the hawk.Below are the Alpaca's. You could smell them as you came around the corner. I can tell you that they smell exactly like sheep. No wonder they use their hair for sweaters.The highlight of my day was seeing a Camel with two humps. Apparently the 2 hump Camels live in northern regions. I've never seen one before.
Daniel had a blast with his new friend Kaden while Reagan rode in the stroller with his little sister Brooke. (Hence no picture of Reagan.)These are Caribou. We saw all kinds of Arctic animals, and Reagan was happy as she got to see her Polar bears. (The semi pro hockey team's mascot is a Polar Bear, so she is in love with Polar Bears, due to her obsession with Hockey.)
Looks like a fun zoo!
